joining me about this, david unger, "christian science monitor." he wrote a story about the pros and cons of underground power lines. that's why we dragged him out on the show tonight. why doesn't every city have underground power? >> right. so it makes a lot of sense. think about it, take the wires, you put them underground. then they're protected from nature's elements but in reality turns out to be very expensive. it can cost anywhere from five to 10 tiles more to install underground cables than it can overhead lines. melissa: but how much does it cost every time the power goes out? i mean we're looking at trees hanging from power lines right now. >> exactly. melissa: how much does it cost to fix it? how much does it cost to rebuild the house burned down because of a downed power line? >> right. you know, it is a tradeoff, kind of a cost benefit analysis people have to take into consideration. the thing is there is lot of up-front costs when you're burying lines underground and people are a little hesitant to agree to a surcharge on their electr

i think science is here in walking around here on long island, he should take a visit here. i lived here all my life. we've not seen anything like this. rising sea level is an issue that many scientists identified for a long time. we have short-term infrastructure investment we haven't dealt with. a gap in excess of $80 billion in terms of what we know prior to the storm we needed for our local government infrastructure. so if you add just billions on top of that and talk about sea walls or floodgates, i do think that we have to assume that this is a changed environment now in all of our decisions about where we locate buildings and mitigation efforts and certainly from our point of view investing pension fund dollars making sure that those we invest with take into consideration the risk of climate change and how to mitigate against it. i think this is what new normal will be and we'll be wise to listen to these warning signs from mother nature. what that's going to mean in terms of cost, anybody's guess. we have so many unmet needs already. that's a long-term discussion and
